Thread: [Request] iTunesDB Parser

I'm looking for something that can parse the iTunesDB file.
On an iPod: E:\iPod_Control\iTunes\iTunesDB
It contains a list of all the MP3 and their locations on the iPod in \iPod_Control\Music\
I wanna make a parser to pull files back and forth from it. Any know what the DB is stored in? Some sort of SQL? It's definitely not flat file.

So, anyone who can provide an open-source parser in any language, it would be highly appreciated.

Yeah, there are a lot of programs that you can pay to do this with, but I want to make my own.
Unfortunately the sample code doesn't tell how to get the list of tracks, which is the only part I'm interested in.

Also, thank you.

You are interested in getting them off your own or making a program that will do it?

Or a program that can do it and then do it to yours?

No Problem...

What? I wanna know the code to read the iTunesDB file so I can use that to find music files on my iPod. I wanna write the program myself. I know I could just download someone else's program to do it for me, and I can just click Search while in the \iPod_Control\Music\ folder. I just wanna make the program, not use someone else's.
